Electrical Work in Thornton Homes
Thornton homes vary widely, from older properties near Washington Street to newer developments closer to E-470, and the electrical systems inside those homes vary just as much.
Older homes in established Thornton neighborhoods often need panel upgrades, wiring updates, and additional circuits that were never part of the original build.
Newer developments near E-470 and expanding northern areas are more likely to need EV charger installation, garage power upgrades, dedicated circuits, and smart home electrical integration.
No matter the age of the home, we evaluate the actual condition of the electrical system first and provide honest recommendations based on what the home truly needs.
No unnecessary work. No pressure. Just clear answers.

Joey came out and did a fantastic job looking over and cleaning my system for the winter. I had someone come out earlier in the year, but it felt more like he was trying to get me to buy a new system than help with my existing. Joey looked over the system, gave a few small but very helpful suggestions, and cleaned it. Could not recommend these folks enough.

The price was fair, too. They are now going to be my primary electrical company going forward. Overall, I highly recommend Power Electrical Services for all your electrical needs! 5 stars across the board!

I had purchased an oven and needed an outlet swap as soon as possible. Lance came out right at the beginning of the service window, was very thorough during the estimate procedure and was extremely knowledgeable and answered a lot of questions I had about my circumstance. Couldn't be happier with the communication and service performed. I will definitely utilize this company again in the future.

Just moved into our new (2000 build) house and Joey came out to do winter maintenance on our furnace. This company was recommended from the former owner. Joey was professional, polite and very helpful - showing me how to change the furnace filter and the humidifier pad. He cleaned out the furnace, inspected the system, (which is newer) and told me everything was in good shape – didn’t try to sell me anything extra. I like them and will use them again.
